Police claim to be seeking what appears to be a mythical individual— “George Rowland,” who, they claim, is this Detroit agent, empowered with the task of causing runs on banks—by telephoning depositors that the various institutions were in a precarious condition. “Rowland,” police claim, had been staying in the Hotel Roosevelt, this | city, but when police came to arrest him, he had vanished. A “confed- erate” had tipped him off, the police ingeniously explained. Morgan Man Helps. I In an attempt to give credence to this forgery, Melvin A.

Elab- orate plans were made by Glassford to stop all traffic in the area of the buildings and march the police in with guns and tear gas to oust the hungry army.

Mother Mooney waved to the reception committee with all the spirit left in her little body as she alightcd from the train. She was, however, too weak to shake hands with all the workers who crowded about her. She winced and ‘tried to run for cover when she saw a -battery of cameramen and reporters rushing to- ward her. But in vain. Finally Mother Mooney and Richard Moore managed to avoid the reporters and the crowd and escape in an auto. Only a few hours elapsed between their arrival and their appearance at Ambassador Hall, Claremont Park- way and Third Ave. the Bronx, where they were welcomed by several thou- sand workers, This was the latest in a long series of Mooney-Scotts- boro meetings held throughout the United States which Mother Mooney and Richard Moore have addressed.
